I have rented dozens of properties in Santa Cruz and the surrounding area. Anything managed by Sanctuary Rentals is going to be fantastic and seamless. This listing must be brand new because it was immaculate and the appliances still had the tags attached. For a harbor rental, this corner unit will have the unusual benefit of views showcasing both the harbor and the Pacific. Another unusual view is being able to see not only Walton Lighthouse but the lighthouse over on Steamer Lane on the west side. Wonderful stay! Enjoy!
